If I were Gainey I would look to move Kovalev to Pitt in a Letang deal. Letang is a good looking puck moving dman for the PP. Plus he is from Montreal. Kovy can go play with Malkin and hope to sign a new contract with Pitt. I would not resign him in Montreal as a UFA this offseason.

does anyone think that if BG were to trade Kovy it would affect the atmosphere in the room ? i seriously don't think so. i remember a game before the ASG when Kovy was telling A Kost what to do, Kosty kind of looked up and rolled his eyes to say like will you shut the **** up !

Well, to be fair, I think A.Kost might not be an easy cookie to deal with himself.
